Chances at Brown

<p>I would appreciate it if people could sort of evaluate my stats and tell me if they think I have a shot at Brown. </p>

<p>Early decision</p>

<p>SAT I:
CR - 700
Math - 740
Writing - 620
(All of my sections except for CR were unusually low for me. I’m retaking in October and I’m expecting at least mid-2100s.)</p>

<p>SAT II:
Math 2 - 790
Chem - 770</p>

<p>GPA - around 100 weighted
Rank - Top 5% in a class of about 360 students</p>

<p>Took highest offered courses fresh/soph year. This year I took:
IB math HL - A+
IB environmental SL - A+
IB English HL - A
AP US hist - A+
IB French SL - A-
Computer-aided-design - A+
Theory of Knowledge IB - I don’t know yet, but probably an A</p>

<p>I will find out about my AP/IB exams later this summer. I took the AP Euro exam last year and got a 3 : / . </p>

<p>ECs:
Currently President of science club - officer for two years
Currently VP of the math team - pretty much guaranteed President next year
Currently secretary of orchestra - will probably get VP for nest year</p>

<p>Sold my soul to science olympiad - my passion which I plan on writing about in my essays.</p>

<p>Math team - was selected to compete at state competition </p>

<p>NHS</p>

<p>I play the cello decently and will be trying out for a local youth symphony orchestra. </p>

<p>Starting (it’s already almost there) underground chess club because chess is illegal at my school.</p>

<p>I might have more that I’m forgetting so I may add later. </p>

<p>Community service:
TA at a Japanese school almost 200 miles away for one year (we drove there every Saturday so that I could TA). </p>

<p>Peer tutoring through NHS. </p>

<p>I expect to have excellent letters of recommendation. </p>

<p>It would be great if you could tell me if I have a shot at Brown early decision. Also, could you estimate if these schools would be reaches, big reaches, matches, etc?</p>

<p>Cornell
Case Western Reserve
Oberlin
Carnegie Mellon
SUNY Binghamton
SUNY Geneseo
University of Rochester</p>

<p>I think you have a nice range of schools.</p>
